• Answer:

  how about trying to Visualize & draw Emotions / Traits, etc. eg. Courage, Love, Fear, Hate, Perseverance, Peace, Joy, Kindness, Naivety, radiance, glory, fright, splendor, sadness, poignancy, awe, calm, skillfulness, creativity, happiness, laughter/mirth, naughtiness, impish, elfin, taunting, serenity, ..... you could also depict Life stages or Rites of Passage such as Birth, Death, Adulthood, Maturation, Childishness, Teenage years, Mid-life crisis, Old age, Senility, Marriage, Widowhood, becoming a grandparent,.... another idea - why not choose a particular color & then try to use it in different scenes, ways, symbols, Moods....besides their "traditional" representations. eg. blue skies & water are pretty common. but what else would blue symbolize that you could depict in your artwork - having the blues, blues as in jazz, & so on .... how about a dusty compy keyboard but with certain frequently used letters [keys] very clean & shiny [these letters could combine to read your name or something]. for the rest, this is what i usually answer : i'm listing categories & when you choose individual items from these categories, your list will become Huge ;-))) Moreover, you can choose from various categories to make your drawing tell a "story" - combine to make the drawing Meaningful. - the sky [ day & night sky] -- sun, moon, clouds, stars, ...... - the elements - rain, fire, water, land, .... - beaches - sand, oceans, surfers, shells, driftwood, tides, ... - aquatic life - algae, whales, sharks, octopus, coral reefs, deep-sea divers, .... - islands, boats, ships, nets, trawlers, anglers, .... - still-life -- any & all objects at home, using different light sources & perspectives, shadows & reflections - yourself, friends & family - portraits, caricatures, .... - nature from your window -- trees, neighborhood, lawns, birds, .... - plants, trees, flowers, bees & butterflies..... - humans performing various activities – series of dancers eg. - transport systems - bus, car, train, plane, spaceship, UFO, .... - dreams & fantasies - mountains, rivers, landscapes, ..... - anatomy the list can go on & on ;-) you can change the same sketch by - drawing close-ups, or 'long-shots' - drawing realistically, in cartoon form or as fantasy forms - changing the light source, direction & intensity, including night-time - drawing only outlines or including shading & shadows [2-D v/s 3-D effect] - using different types of pencils, charcoal, ..... &/or colors - water, oil, acrylic, crayons, pencils, glitter, glass paints, mosaic-work,.... - changing the perspective & angle - using surrealism, cubism, abstract forms... .... may be you can go wild ;-)) use diff techniques & media - including pastels, crayons, oils, cut-n-paste, mosaic, cartoon-drawing, symbolism, etc.... - check out old greeting cards, magazines, net images, comic books, etc. to get some ideas. use these ideas to create your own drawing. - you could make a 'series' of any one thing. different ways of going about it : eg. flowers - have 15 different types of flowers in the 15 drawings; or, have the same flower [eg. rose] but depicted in different ways - eg. in close-up, in a garden, with a bee humming over it, as a bouquet, in a dried-petal arrangement [glued] along with dried leaves/herbs, & so on; or you could change the light source, light intensity, colors [from black n white to monochrome to multicolored] - you could paint a series on school-related stuff. eg. the different rooms in your school, or the diff articles of school usage, the school colors & emblem, diff activities at school, diff moods of students at school, & so on. http://painting.about.com/od/inspiration/l/bl-Painting-Ideas-Machine.htm AND www.magatsu.net/art/ generate random ideas for free hope these help all the very best & have fun :-)))
